AND THERE'S AN UPDATE

The imagery of this library is gorgeous. Quite a lot of the time when places like these are described they're somewhat bland, lifeless. But this...you've made it as though she's actually there and so am I, and I don't know how to initiate this sense of reality into your work but you do it so well.

[Someone used to spend hours in those chairs. Someone once hid a stolen item that wasn't really stolen behind a thick boring book on one of those shelves to keep a promise. Someone, once, fell in love with a girl here, and another in love with the world.

Someone, somewhere, alive or dead or otherwise, had once used this place as an escape. They had grabbed all the books they could hold off the shelves and hid themselves in a corner, traveling to the fantastic worlds of chocolate factories and midnight circuses, to jungles and oceans and universes outside universes that our minds cannot fully comprehend. They had loved this library the way her mother loved sundae shops with root beer floats and the way her father loved the theatre. And they had loved its books the way she does.]

These two paragraphs are so perfectly sculpted I want to cry. THEY DESCRIBE ME SO PERFECTLY IT'S LIKE YOU'RE IN MY HEAD BUT MY HEAD IS A CROSSOVER WITH A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS AND THAT IS THE MOST AMAZING AND PETRIFYING THING EVER

Wow. I still love this.
I just noticed your use of the present tense which I find impressive. I've tried to write in present tense before but have always ended up going back as changing all my verbs because I find it perplexing.
I'm so glad you've decided to update and I can't wait to see what happens next.
You're a really great writer!

Just brilliant.

Your writing is so beautiful. I just - when I'm reading this, I can't really fucntion, because I'm just seeing all these gorgeous metaphors and dialogue so /realistic/ it's as though you are Lemony Snicket, just different, and it hurts because of reasons I don't know how to explain and I just want to BE HERE OH MY GOD

please continue this as soon as possible otherwise i may die

Do you think you will continue this with more chapters, or leave it as is? I only ask because it isn't listed as completed although the ending the chapter 2 is very well done, and the summary implies tehre might be more waiting for us lol. But very good job, I hope to read more if there is more!

Beatrice's letter was perfect. Absolutely- I could definitely see her writing this and it's completely in character, even if we only know so very little of her. Again, perfect. :)
La Clef A Verite 7/20/12 . chapter 2
This is splendid.
I completely forgot that this was a fanfic and not canon haha. Usually, in asoue fanfics, people try to imitate Snicket's style, which turn out a bit forced, more often than not. However, you chose a different style, one (I'm going to assume) that you're more comfortable with, which I think is an excellent choice, especially as Lemony is actually a character in this and not the narrator. You chose to write in present tense, which could sound very awkward if not used properly, but I think it came out okay in this.
And the characterization was nice, too. Judging from what we've read (especially in The Beatrice Letters), Beatrice was very in love with Lemony before. But the way the letter was written it was very hard to believe that Beatrice could have ever married Bertrand. It's not really a fault per se, as people do change, but it kinda threw me off. It might just be me though.
But good job overall so far! It's very nice and well done and I hope you don't stop writing for this :)

I'm crying now, thanks. D': but good job, again!
Saphy18 7/8/12 . chapter 1
